KION GROUP AG: KION Warehouse Systems celebrates 125th anniversary (news with additional features)

*KION Warehouse Systems celebrates 125th anniversary - Logistics equipment 4.0 made in Reutlingen*

*- One of the oldest companies in the greater Reutlingen area*

*- Founded in 1893 as Ernst Wagner Apparatebau*

*- Now VNA center of excellence for KION*Reutlingen, September 14, 2018 - KION Warehouse Systems (KWS), one of the oldest companies in the greater Reutlingen area, celebrates its 125th anniversary on September 15. A gala event with guests of honor Barbara Bosch, Reutlingen's mayor, Dr. Eike Böhm, KION's Chief Technology Officer, and Dr. Henry Puhl, President of STILL GmbH, will kick off the celebrations, which will be followed by a family day at the site in Reutlingen-Mittelstadt. Around 380 employees currently work at KWS, which serves as the KION Group's center of excellence for very narrow aisle trucks (VNAs).

The site's origins can be traced back to the late 19th century and the founding of Ernst Wagner Apparatebau in 1893. The company soon recognized the potential of the growing market for logistics solutions and developed an extensive product portfolio. It was a leading innovator in the warehouse truck market in the 1980s and 1990s, when the company's automated guided vehicle systems raised its profile around the world. As a logistics pioneer, the company has had a considerable influence on the automation trend now known as Logistics 4.0.

This pioneering role brought the company to the attention of Linde AG, which acquired a 100 percent stake in 1991 and made the company part of its Hamburg-based subsidiary STILL in 1996. Over the following years, the company manufactured sit-on, stand-on, and reach trucks for STILL and order picking stacker trucks for Linde and STILL. In 2004, the flagship VNA, the MX-X (man-up), was fully redesigned and launched on the market. Its modular design allowed customers to create a truck to match their individual requirements - a unique feature at the time.

Following the spin-off of the material handling division from Linde AG in 2006, the Reutlingen site became part of the newly established KION Group AG, a global provider of supply chain solutions, forklift trucks, warehouse technology, and related services.

KION expanded the plant in Reutlingen into a multi-brand site in 2010, and KWS became the center of excellence for VNAs. The KWS plant was the first to develop and produce VNAs for multiple KION brands and has become a role model for other sites in the Group. There has been continual investment in machinery since 2010, and thanks to the site's 40-strong development department KWS now has one of the most modern VNA fleets on the market. The latest product, the modular MX-X/K combi truck, enjoyed a highly successful launch in spring 2018. Just under 1,000 units have been sold since the model went on sale. As always, the trucks manufactured in Reutlingen come in manual, semi-automatic, and fully automatic versions and meet the requirements of Logistics 4.0 in full.

The offering from KWS includes worldwide technical support for the VNAs and is complemented by the KION* *VNA* *Academy.* *Established in 2012, the academy provides training for service technicians and sales people from the KION brand companies STILL and Linde. The academy's training is being extended to other regions and is now also available in China and South America. Around 700 service technicians and sales representatives are trained in Reutlingen every year.

Since a strategic realignment, the volume of units produced annually has increased by more than 50 percent. This success is also reflected in the number of employees, which has increased by around a quarter in the past years. At its Mittelstadt site, KWS also provides training for mechatronics fitters, skilled metal workers and industrial clerks, and participates in the 'Reutlingen Model' BEng degree program.

Barbara Bosch, mayor of Reutlingen: "KION Warehouse Systems evolved from a long-established local business. The long history of the company is testament to the innovative strength of the city and of its residents. I am particularly pleased that we have an international market leader like KION based here whose products - made in Reutlingen - are sold around the world."

Marc Lehnstaedt, managing director of KION Warehouse Systems: "The fact that the company is celebrating its 125th anniversary underlines its ability to continually reinvent itself and adapt to changing conditions. In recent years, the trend towards a global flow of goods and the growing importance of e-commerce has led to a sharp rise in demand for VNAs made in Reutlingen. The global sales network of KION's Linde and STILL brands allows us to sell our products around the world. We are proud of our product portfolio and of our leading role within the KION Group. I would like to thank our employees, whose support and ideas make us such a successful company."The Company

Buy the dips in EUR/USD to 1.1500 – Danske Bank

$
0
0
Chief Analyst at Danske Bank Christin Tuxen recommended buying the pair on occasional drops to the 1.1500 area.

*Key Quotes*

“While the ECB’s inflation confidence helped lift EUR crosses yesterday, we stress that it is still a little too early for the FX market to discount an end to negative rates, which will be key for delivering more broad-based EUR strength”.

“We still see a risk that USD strength will linger in H2 due to the prospect of relative rates moving in favour of the greenback and trade woes and emerging markets worries weighing still”.

“However, we are less worried about Italy-led risks near term, so the potential for a significant dip in EUR/USD near term is smaller than we previously expected and dips below 1.15 should be bought into”.

“The key trigger for *EUR/USD* to invoke a more sustained uptrend remains a turn in capital flows and it is likely these will not be triggered until the market senses that the ECB is growing ever more confident in initiating a hiking cycle (not likely until H1 19). Hence, in our view, it is still too early for a sustained EUR uptrend driven by the ECB”. Reported by FXstreet.com 3 hours ago.

*Introduction to and Rationale for the Offers*

On the terms and subject to the conditions contained in the Tender Offer Memorandum, the Offeror invites Noteholders (subject to the Offer and Distribution Restrictions contained herein) to tender their Notes for purchase by the Offeror at the relevant Purchase Price together with Accrued Interest.

The Offers are made for the general liquidity management of the Group. Any Notes purchased by the Offeror in the Offers will be transferred to and held by the Offeror in accordance with the terms and conditions of the Notes and, if decided by the Offeror in its sole discretion, may be cancelled in full or in part immediately after or at any time following completion of the Offers.

*Purchase Prices*

The Offeror will pay for each Series of Notes validly tendered and accepted by it for purchase pursuant to the relevant Offer in respect of each Series of Notes, a cash purchase price per U.S.$1,000 in principal amount of the Notes of the relevant Series validly tendered and accepted for purchase by the Offeror as determined pursuant to the Modified Dutch Auction Procedure (as defined below) (for each Series of Notes, the "*Purchase Price*").

*Series Acceptance Amounts and Maximum Consideration Amount*

The Offeror will determine, in its sole discretion, the aggregate principal amount of each Series of Notes (if any) that it will accept for purchase pursuant to the relevant Offer (each such amount, a "*Series Acceptance Amount*"), subject to the aggregate Purchase Price and Accrued Interest payable for all Notes of all Series accepted for purchase not exceeding U.S.$300,000,000 (the "*Maximum Consideration Amount*").

The Offeror reserves the right, in its sole discretion, to accept for purchase significantly more or less (or none) of the Notes of any one Series as compared to the other Series.

The Offeror reserves the right, in its sole discretion, to increase or decrease the Maximum Consideration Amount, subject to applicable law.

*Modified Dutch Auction Procedure*

Under the Modified Dutch Auction Procedure, the Offeror will determine, in its sole discretion, following expiration of the Offers, the Purchase Price for each Series of the Notes (expressed as the amount payable for each U.S.$1,000 in principal amount of the relevant Series of the Notes equal to, or in an increment of U.S.$0.50 per U.S.$1,000 in principal amount of the relevant Series of the Notes above, the relevant Minimum Purchase Price), in each case, taking into account the principal amount of the relevant Series of Notes so tendered and the Offer Prices specified (or deemed to be specified, as set out below) by tendering Noteholders.

The Purchase Price for each Series of the Notes will represent the lowest price that will enable the Offeror to purchase an aggregate principal amount of the relevant Series of the Notes, as the case may be, which equals the relevant Series Acceptance Amount and shall either be the applicable Minimum Purchase Price, or an increment of U.S.$0.50 per U.S.$1,000 in principal amount of the relevant Series of Notes above such Minimum Purchase Price. The Purchase Price in respect of each Series of Notes will apply to all Notes of such Series accepted for purchase.

Tender Instructions in respect of Notes may be submitted in the form of either a Competitive Offer (which specifies a purchase price higher than the relevant Minimum Purchase Price) or a Non-Competitive Offer (which does not specify a purchase price or specifies a price less than or equal to the relevant Minimum Purchase Price).

If a Competitive Offer specifies a purchase price that is not in whole increments of U.S.$0.50 per U.S.$1,000, such purchase price will be rounded up to the nearest increment of U.S.$0.50 per U.S.$1,000 in principal amount of the relevant Series of Notes.

*Scaling*

In the event that Tender Instructions are received in respect of an aggregate principal amount of Notes of the relevant Series which is greater than the relevant Series Acceptance Amount, then such Tender Instructions will be accepted on a pro-rata basis, as further described in the Tender Offer Memorandum.

*Accrued Interest*

The Offeror will also pay accrued and unpaid interest in respect of all Notes validly tendered and accepted for purchase by the Offeror, from (and including) the interest payment date for the relevant Series immediately preceding the Settlement Date to (but excluding) the Settlement Date (such payment, "*Accrued Interest*").

*Bremen-based project developer enters into more contracts with turbine manufacturers*

*Energiekontor and Senvion agree on joint realisation of several wind farms*

*Bremen, 14 September 2018*.* *Energiekontor AG has signed contracts yesterday with turbine manufacturer Senvion for the supply of turbines for several wind farms in Germany. An English wind farm is also being equipped with Senvion turbines. The first wind farms are to be commissioned in 2019. Following the contract that was signed on Wednesday of this week, this is Energiekontor's second agreement for package deliveries of wind turbines.

"We are pleased that our broad product portfolio enables us to precisely meet the requirements of Energiekontor's projects," explains Knud Rissel, Managing Director Europe, Senvion. "Energiekontor is one of Senvion's most important customers both in the German market and abroad. And for us, this agreement is another good example of a successful partnership."

Günter Eschen, member of the Management Board of Energiekontor AG comments, "We attach great importance not only to the profitability of our projects but also to quality, and the reliability of our partners. We are therefore pleased that we were able to convince Senvion, a further renowned turbine manufacturer, to implement wind energy projects with Energiekontor in all our key regions. As we have already successfully completed numerous projects with Senvion in the past, this agreement is based on a solid foundation of trust. We are convinced that we will also be able to participate successfully in auctions together. Moreover, negotiations based on PPAs are becoming increasingly important in Germany. Energiekontor has set itself the goal of making electricity from wind and solar energy more economically viable than electricity from fossil and nuclear energy sources. That is our contribution to our vision: 100 percent renewable energy."

And his fellow member of the Management Board, Torben Möller, adds, "Similar contracts for package deals are also planned with other turbine manufacturers in order to secure our project pipeline. Energiekontor AG is thus setting a clear signal for the gradual implementation of planned projects in the coming years."

Its core business covers the planning, construction and operational management of wind farms in Germany and abroad, and was expanded to include solar power in 2010. Energiekontor also currently owns and operates 34 wind farms and one solar park with total rated power of nearly 270 megawatts. Energiekontor AG now also intends to be a pioneer when it comes to economic viability in realising the first wind farms and solar parks at market prices without state subsidies in all target markets as quickly as possible.

In addition to its headquarters in Bremen, Energiekontor also maintains offices in Bremerhaven, Hagen im Bremischen, Aachen, Dortmund, Bernau (near Berlin) and Potsdam. The company also has branch offices in England (Leeds), Scotland (Glasgow), Portugal (Lisbon), the Netherlands (Nijmegen), the US (Austin/Texas and Rapid City/South Dakota) and France (Toulouse). The formation of an additional office in France is currently in the making.

Our track record speaks for itself: We have realised 118 wind farms with total rated power of around 940 megawatts and three solar parks with total rated power of about 30 megawatts. This corresponds to an investment volume of more than EUR 1.6 billion.

Energiekontor went public on 25 May 2000. The shares of Energiekontor AG (WKN 531350/ISIN DE0005313506) are listed in the General Standard segment of the Frankfurt Stock Exchange and can be traded on all German stock exchanges.*About Senvion:*
